“Publicity charade” is such a weird thing to say. Surely if Eggert or Polonsky simply wanted attention, they could have (or would have) been seeking it in some other way before this, but no one’s heard from Eggert in years and no one knew Polonsky existed before last week (no offense, kid, but it’s true).

Not sure why you chose Married with Children but I personally wouldn’t be surprised by anything from that set. That show was clearly conceived by a bunch of bitter middle aged men and executed by bitter young men. Wouldn’t surprise me if sexist vibes from the show translated into sexist vibes on the set. Especially…

The thing to remember is that the wo/man on the street? Is appalled.

They’re targets BECAUSE they’re obviously young.

I know right, the whole thing between him and his teacher is so fucking creepy and the fact that people seem to think that it’s not creepy is so bizarre.

They got that out of their ass. Just straight from there with no though regarding what was written in the story or what the students were going for.

I don’t think you’ll find a lot of opposition among liberals about providing low cost birth control options. But that’s not what this is about, and it is certainly extremely alarming, for a number of reasons, for a judge to be making sterilization a condition of sentencing. It’s more than “quite a bit sketchy.”

She didn’t commit a sex crime. She’s an addict who bounced checks. Surely you can see the difference between a child rapist and her.

He could have offered an IUD and rehab. Not so icky. Sterilization has a long and unfortunate history.

RE: OP

Lord, this subject - people have such short memories about what a grave history of injustice our country has, including America’s use of forced sterilization as a tool in the white supremacy/eugenics arsenal. My husband and I are foster/adoptive parents of three kids, born to a woman with a drug addiction who has had…

Judges cannot be making these suggestions. What the ever loving fuck. This is upsetting af.

I’dlike to emphasize that not only was the white guy who was proven to be the actual criminal not immediately arrested when this fact was revealed, it was only revealed *AFTER* the mother of the falsely accused men - one of whom had been shot by the actual criminal - demanded that the cops do their got DAMNED jobs.…

Random jerks can do it in their basement, too!

He’d fuck anything. Anything!
